6 Legumes represent an important component of a sustainable agriculture and contribute to an environmentally sound and resource-saving agriculture Legumes, the knowledge on production techniques and the options for their processing and use in agriculture should be kept, maintained and further developed

7 Use ecosystem services of legumes and improve resource protection Less tight crop rotation more agribiodiversity Supply of additional nectar sources for pollinators Reduction of mineral nitrogen fertilizer, CO 2 savings, increased energy efficiency Improvement of soil fertility (humus, water holding capacity, soil decompactation

8 Strengthen regional value chains, increase and improve protein supplies from domestic production, use the criterion not genetically modified (produced without genetic engineering)

9 offset the competitive disadvantages of legumes close research gaps take necessary measures for practical implementation

10 Protein Crop Strategy model regions/ demonstration networks research breeding agricultural policy International Danube Soya Congress, Augsburg, 25./ , Federal Office for Agriculture and Food, Groß-Spangenberg

11 Greening in the framework of the Common Agricultural Policy CAP after 2013 Ecological focus areas (planned: recognised e.g. when cultivating nitrogen fixing crops) Funding measures of the federal states in Germany: agrienvironmental schemes multiple crop rotation

12 Profitable legume cultivation is possible with highperformance varieties only Plant breeding is a key technology

13 Interdisciplinary research Applied research in close connection with practice Networking at national and European levels

14 Science, Economy and Society Making Ecosystem Services from Legumes Competitive International Danube Soya Congress, Augsburg, 25./ , Federal Office for Agriculture and Food, Groß-Spangenberg

15 Promotion of knowledge transfer and consultation Demonstration of new procedures in practice Identification and demonstration of Best-Practice examples Development of a network along the entire value chain (production- processing- use as Food, Feed)

16 National programme for innovation Federal programme for organic farming and other forms of sustainable agriculture (BÖLN) Project management agricultural research: Decision support measures, model and demonstration measures, surveys EU programmes: EU-ERA Net e.g. Core Organic

17 Expansion of soy cultivation via adaptation by breeding, as well as optimisation measures in crop cultivation and processing techniques ( ), Quelle: Dr. Wilbois/Fibl

18 First step focus soybean/lupine Protein Crop Strategy Bilder : BLE, Wilbois/Fibl

19 Protein Crop Strategy Call of the Federal Office for Agriculture and Food / Federal programme for organic farming and other forms of sustainable agriculture (BÖLN) for project ideas re. the realisation of both model demonstration networks and research and development projects Expansion and improvement of the cultivation and use of legumes, with a focus on soybean and lupines in Germany, on December 12, 2012 International Danube Soya Congress, Augsburg, 25./ , Federal Office for Agriculture and Food, Groß-Spangenberg

20 Model demonstration network for the expansion and improvement of cultivation and use of soybean in Germany Start of the collaborative project: Nationwide network incl. 11 federal German states with more than 100 farmer

21 Protein Crop Strategy Still in preparation: Model Demonstration Network for Lupines Research and development projects for soya and lupine Bilder : BLE, Beckhoff

22 Protein Crop Strategy Planned second step: Focus on field bean/pea in 2014 Bilder : BLE, Wilbois/Fibl

23 Horizon 2020 European Innovative Partnership EIP

24 Time line : 1/1/2014, Horizon 2020 starts on December 11, the first Horizon 2020 call will be published by the European Commission, draft work programme expected to be available on Horizon 2020 website November/December, National contact point for information in Germany

25 Agricultural Productivity and Sustainability Encourage and promote innovation to increase productivity and efficiency in view of sustainability in agriculture Promote the exchange between practice and science and close gap

26 Focus group: European group of experts to identify gaps in research and activities for innovation promotion, e.g. for protein crops, organic farming Operational group: Pool of farmers, advisors, scientists, agribusiness, NGOs to implement a (regional) innovation within a concrete project. To be funded by the ELER- Programmes of the German federal states (Laender); Programme start not expected before the end of 2014

27 Horizon 2020 and EIP offer promising approaches to initiate European cooperation projects in research to develop and implement the positive ecosystem services of legumes to achieve an increase of the cultivation and use of legumes
